Buttermilk Griddle Cakes

Buttermilk Griddle Cakes

(4 servings)    Printable Version
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup sweet cream
  • 1 egg - well beaten
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 Tablespoon melted butter
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated cornmeal
  • 2 cups flour
Mix ingredients in order given. Drop by spoonfuls on a greased hot griddle. Cook on one side and when puffed, full of bubble and well cooked on edges, turn and cook on other side.

Serve with butter and maple syrup. Griddle cakes made from buttermilk have an unusually good flavor and are tenderer than those made from plain milk or water.

Recipe Rating (out of 5):

These have a great flavor. The batter was thick but cooked up light, next time I would try adding 1/2 cup less flour and see how that works.
